Audition #10
The audition yesterday came about from one of the emails I sent out last week. She originally wanted me to audition this coming Saturday, but when I said I couldn’t do it she fit me in yesterday afternoon. It was just me and the person who was auditioning me in a small rehearsal room. It’s very different doing the monologue in that type of space and to only one person. (Like M. said, it was more like I was working in front of a camera.) I didn’t feel like the monologue had the same energy as the day before, but we’ll see what happens. They were casting for future as yet unnamed productions.
One thing about the small space was that I was very aware that I need to firm up my choices for this particular monologue. I’ve been using all these auditions as an opportunity to put the piece on it’s feet and get a sense of which choices work and which choices work. I think this has been a helpful move, but I need to make it more consistent now.
